I don't really sleep 12 hours a day.

[ but he's not going to clarify how many hours it is. ]

But I'd say it has served me just fine. No lifestyle is perfect.

[pomo]

I suppose, if it's the only one you've ever known.

[ APPLe floats on over. ]

What are you reading?

[hiban]

I've witnessed plenty of other lifestyles in my travels but the one I have is the only one that I can live.

[ whatever the fuck that means. anyway, book. lavi will let the apple see that it'd be one of the less family friendly books exploring the cruelties of humanity. you know. light reading..... ]

And I was curious about how this "Father" would present this subject. Each place that I've visited has had their own way of viewing it.

[ and justifying their actions. ]

[pomo]

How morbid...

[ Not to Lavi specifically but also why this specific topic... lavi......... ]

Did you find anything interesting?

[hiban]

[ look.

there's a reason for this. fair tales are fun and everything but there are only so many of them he could read before he needs a change. ]

Yes and no; it's what you can expect to read in something like this. People who think they're going to do good but end up hurting a lot of people.

[pomo]

Rather than good, this APPLe thinks... as long as someone believes that they are in the right, they can do anything.

[ Look. He'll even somersault in the air. ]

[hiban]

[ he really would comment on if it's worth categorizing "right" and "wrong" but then he gets distracted. ]

Oh! You can do tricks?

[pomo]

What do you mean by tricks, boy.

[ Let him move however he wants?? Gosh. ]

[hiban]

[ lavi isn't judging?? he's just curious??? ]

Since you float around like that... Do you ever feel like doing tricks?

[pomo]

Pray tell, young man. Are there any walking tricks you have?

[ Dancing?? ]

[hiban]

[ the apple is making a point but also like— ]

Would you consider something like fancy feet work a trick?

[pomo]

Would you?

[ APPLe sighs, but he does twirl around midair and flips too. The collar cloth nearly smacks Lavi's face. Don't worry about it. ]

[hiban]

[ even if it does smack him in the face, it's totally fair. ]

Depends. If it's a skill that not many people can perform.

[ though, just to join apple with the flip, he'll do one too! a backflip!! ]

[pomo]

You are very clearly not a part of that group.

[ The ones who can't. ]

Please finish your soup before you do any more physically strenuous activities.

[ scold scold scold ]

[hiban]

[ ah. right.

he might have forgotten all about that part. ]

Right...

[ back to the soup eating he goes. ]

[pomo]

[ This APPLe frets--he truly cares, after all. Amethyst bonding. He calms a bit though, watching Lavi eat the soup. ]

This APPLe supposes he should be thankful that you are not as reckless as the Captain...

[hiban]

[ :catgun:

but he'll be happily eating the soup and will be polite enough to pause his eating to ask the question. ]

Captain? Like a military captain or a ship captain?

[pomo]

Ah, yes. The pirate ship captain--Regulus.

[ Surprise about yesterday's rumor validation. Yippee. ]

She's always passionate about music, specifically rock 'n roll... also loved scooters or anything motorcycle-adjacent and music festivals. She's quite the bundle of energy.

[ APPLe seems a little more animated, swaying in the air as he talks about her. ]

[hiban]

[ how fortunate for the apple to have lavi learn all of this about him because there's no way that it's going to be forgotten now. ]

The brightest star in the heart of Leo. [ he'll mumble it into the soup. ] A lively captain for a boldly named ship.

[ and even though it would be so easy to point out the demeanor change, lavi would like to go down this path instead. ]

I wouldn't have thought that you'd be a member of a pirate crew. Professor is full of surprising secrets.

[pomo]

This APPLe must say that he's quite enigmatic, but most of it comes from being an apple.

[ Yeah, he knows. He'll admit it. But also-- ]

She named the ship after me, actually. She... likes naming many things after me. There has been APPLe the ship, APPLe II the ship, and APPLe the blimp.

[hiban]

[ me failing reading comprehension... what if i didn't tag during a meeting. (it wasn't important). but it doesn't change much does it? a woman named after such a bright star; to live up to such a name must be something.

and well. ]

APPLe the blimp...

[ wait. ]

APPLe II the ship? What happened to APPLe the ship?

[pomo]

Ah, it was destroyed by shadow entities.

[ He'll just leave it at that. ]

[hiban]

Shadow entities?

[ context?? ]

[pomo]

Yes, we were being chased by them...

[ APPLe's voice trails off for a moment. There's no expression on an apple, but the vibes here are uncertainty. ]

... This APPLe is not sure why that happened.

[hiban]

[ ah. lavi has a guess as it what might have happened with that bit of information. how unfortunate... ]

Well, we know that your Captain and you survived whatever happened at the very least.

[ UNLESS HE'S TALKING TO A DEAD APPLE?? ]
